$

0

As per RFC4541, it is valid scenario for a proxy to send IGMP query with src as 0.0.0.0.Also, the RFC says, section 2.1.1 (4) that "If the switch is not the Querier, it should use the 'all-zeros' IP Source Address in these proxy queries (even though some hosts may elect to not process queries with a 0.0.0.0 IP Source Address).

The question is : how to make host to accept these queries instead ? Is there is a switch or would it need a patch on Linux/debian buster 4.19.99
